I don't know these people!

What's with parents trying to invite THEIR friends? Especially one's you barely know. I've already included a few close friends of the family, no dad, your drinking buddies can't come! And my mom, "Oh Bev would love to come to the wedding!" Who's Bev??? The lady who does her nails every two weeks....

Imagine if they were paying for some of my wedding, half the guest list would be most of their friends from the local nursing home. (I'm kidding on that last part, we always tease my parents about being old.)

Seriously, whose parents want to invite this and that person?

    My guest list could have easily, EASILY been 300+.

    Wow. The guest list has been a huge point of contention for us! I dont understand, the whole "they will be offended if they dont get an invite!" seriously? I think its selfish for people to EXPECT us to shell out money to include every single aunt, uncle, cousin, second and great. FIL are paying a lot, but I'm with others, that I dont want STRANGERS around me while we celebrate. Its one thing for new family to be there, but FMIL co-workers we have never met? just because she was invited to their children's wedding? we are at 100+ with just family, and maybe 20 of that is our friends.
